SonarQube for DevOps Training Course

SonarQube provides a centralized platform for the ongoing evaluation of code quality and security posture through static application security testing (SAST) and comprehensive reporting mechanisms designed for development teams.

This guided instructional session, available via online or in-person delivery, targets intermediate-level software developers, DevOps engineers, and cybersecurity professionals seeking to implement static code analysis protocols, integrate SonarQube into Azure DevOps workflows, and enhance secure coding standards. The curriculum is tailored for government use cases where rigorous technical oversight is required for government.

Upon completion of this program, participants will demonstrate the ability to:

• Describe the architectural framework, primary functionalities, and security-centric rule sets of SonarQube.
• Deploy and configure SonarScanner alongside standard build utilities, including Maven, Gradle, and Ant.
• Incorporate SonarQube into Azure DevOps pipelines and synchronize with Azure Repos to facilitate continuous code analysis.
• Establish and refine analysis parameters, implement custom rules using the SonarQube API, and interpret resulting security assessments.
• Implement secure development lifecycle improvements and clarify accountability roles within the CI/CD framework.
• Execute practical analysis exercises on sample codebases (Java with Quarkus and Angular) to identify and remediate detected vulnerabilities.

Instructional Methodology

• Engaging lectures coupled with structured discussion.
• Supervised, practical laboratory exercises utilizing authentic repository data.
• Real-time configuration, validation, and troubleshooting within an integrated Azure DevOps and SonarQube environment.
